This is the third time I’ve had the privilege of photographing Gage! I first photographed him when he was 3 months, then at 6 months, and now he’s a big strapping (walking!) one year old! I can’t believe how much he’s grown! What a happy little guy –

We had so much fun photographing Stephen and Dana and Libby. They are fun to be around, and Libby is so dang cute! And I’ll admit it, since they were the last session on Saturday we definitely went a little longer than 20 minutes. But everyone was just having a good time and the light was so beautiful, why stop?

Yesterday while I was editing their session, Shep was sitting in my lap saying, “Wibby! Wibby!!!!” over and over again.

I had the pleasure of meeting Dede and her mother Paula when I photographed baby Gage earlier this year. It was so fun to get to get to meet Dede’s husband Blaine and get to photograph them as a family! Gage was such a good subject! He was smiling and looking at the camera, such a good baby! Isn’t it nice that I get clients who have wonderful children? I’m pretty lucky in that regard.

Oh the Hauns. To know them is to love them. Cheryl is one of the most loving and unselfish people I know, and there is not a child on earth that doesn’t looooove Casey Haun. They are so much fun to be around and such a blessing to all of us who are lucky to know them. I was honored to be at the hospital when they became parents earlier this year. It was probably the most precious moment I’ve ever been honored to document. I’m seriously tearing up just thinking about it. This past Sunday I was honored again to document their family!

How can you not love a family that brings an outfit change to a 20 minute portrait session?

It was fun playing with Mackenzie. She is about the same age as Shep, but she is definitely all girl! I was really struck by the differences in the things she wanted to do, play, hold, etc. than what Shep would’ve wanted if he were there. Of course I know that girls and boys are different, but I guess I didn’t realize how different they are at such a young age. Mackenzie knows so many words and she knows tons of sign language! She gave me kisses and asked me to sing “He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands” over and over again. We had fun. We’re buds. I kept reminding her of our buddiness. Mackenzie’s parents are our good good friends Jon and Jamie. I got to take some portraits of her back in Semptember which you can see here. She’s grown!

Hehe, she wanted to wear a hat that was not on the approved wardrobe list…

While I was in Colorado, I had the privilege of meeting and photographing little Sayler. Sayler looks exactly like what you think he would look like when you see his parents. You look at his mom and look at his dad and you think of the baby that would come from them and he is exactly it! Adorable in every way and so squishy and snuggly!!! Thanks for letting me snuggle you Sayler! Give your mommy a hug for me!

Of course starting with feet. I can’t get enough of baby feet.

We took Sayler out to the beautiful green grass, but he wasn’t a fan. I love his expressions,

“Mommy I don’t understand what we’re doing, this isn’t fun!!!”

His daddy loves him!

Once we went back inside, Sayler perked right up. Look at those eyes!!
